3.5Installing a FLASH Cartridge

FLASH cartridges provide the same features as DRAM, with the added benefit of providing permanent storage for custom fonts, label formats and images. FLASH memory is essentially a non-volatile, electronically erasable PROM. A write protect switch on the cartridge is used to safeguard stored data against accidental erasure.

To install a memory cartridge:

nTurn ‘off’ and unplug the printer.

oRemove the two screws securing the Electronics Access Panel and open to reveal the connector, see figure below.
